The series “The Crown” about the fate of the royal family has become a hit around the world. He talked about the lesser-known beginnings of Queen Elizabeth’s accession to the throne until 2007. While we already knew a lot about the scandals related to the breakdown of the relationship between Princess Diana and Prince Charles and the princess’s accident, other threads are completely new. Especially the one about the beginnings of love between Kate Middleton and Prince William.

The turbulent years influenced the image of the next crown prince. Time for stability
The heir to the throne, now King Charles, did not arouse much sympathy for years. Due to his affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles, his marriage to Princess Diana broke up, although the series “The Crown” showed that this relationship was largely arranged, but also extremely mismatched. And since it happened to two very temperamental people, they did not manage to survive with clenched teeth, unlike Elizabeth, who humbly endured her husband’s antics. Hopes for the future of the next heir to the throne are high. After a time of turmoil, it was expected that his functioning in the royal family would be calm, stable and exemplary. It seems that William himself knew this from childhood, so the choice of his wife was more than important. Reasonable, but certainly not without genuine feeling.
A story like from a fairy tale. Are you sure?
In the case of Duchess Kate and Prince William, there was talk of almost perfect love. They met at university, he fell in love immediately, she had to convince herself a bit and she didn’t care about the princess status at all. She came from a wealthy family, but not an aristocratic one. “The Crown” shows that the beginnings of their relationship were not so fairy-tale. According to the creators, Duchess Kate’s mother, Carole Elisabeth Middleton, had a significant role in this relationship, as she almost created an intrigue around the prince. She sent her daughter to places where he was supposed to be, e.g. a survival expedition to Brazil (in the end, they missed each other), a painting course in Venice, which the prince ultimately did not go to, and she even postponed her daughter’s entry to college for a year. All this so that she could start it in the same year as William. Later, she sabotaged the relationship daughter with another man to bring her closer to the prince.
At one point in the series, Kate bursts out and blames her mother for all this, although it is clearly stated that she actually fell in love with him despite this. It is difficult to say to what extent this matchmaking is true, “The Crown”, despite its undoubted craftsmanship, is still an interpretation, not a biographical series. The fact is that Duchess Kate and Prince William are very popular in Great Britain and are not accompanied by major scandals.
